In order to prevent soiling or damage, the following information must be observed: 

• Before starting repairs in the vehicle interior, the corresponding protective covers must be provided in the repair area for the floor coverings, seats, steering wheel, etc. to prevent them from becoming dirty.
• Persons performing work in the vehicle interior should ensure they have clean work clothes, clean shows and clean hands.
• When removing bulky or difficult to handle parts (e.g. bench seat, roof lining, instrument panel etc.), always work with aid of at least a second person.
• Do not use dirty or unapproved tools. This prevents any, e.g. scratching or crazing of interior parts etc.
• Always place removed interior parts on a clean and soft surface.

Further information: 

• Repair or replace damaged interior parts (particularly mounts such as retaining clips, Velcro fasteners etc.).
• When installing interior parts at the intended locations, install insulation material and/or protective foils, or, replace insulation material/protective foils as required in order to dampen vibrations and noise.
• Many equipment parts in the area of the vehicle interior have been installed or made specifically to the customer's request, and cannot be replaced easily if damaged or soiled; for this reason, utmost care must be ensured when carrying out operations in the vehicle interior.
• Remove any dirt present with cleaners approved by Daimler and suitable for corresponding surfaces. When doing so, where possible, the compatibility of the cleaning agent should be tested at a concealed area of the part to be cleaned.
